SPARC Symposium 2018: Socio-Sonic

This symposium will take a cross-disciplinary approach, digging deeper into sonic sociality. While the social aspects of music-making are well-documented, the sociality of sound is less often discussed in detail. The SPARC Symposium 2018 will bring together practitioners and researchers from a wide variety of musical and non-musical backgrounds for two days of spoken presentations, discussion, installation, film screenings and performances.

In the three evenings preceding the symposium (11-13 September), SPARC will also be presenting SPARCfest 2018, a series of exploratory concert performances featuring internationally-acclaimed improvisers, electronic musicians and sound artists.

These events are free to attend and booking is separate. Please see below for details
